The lateral wall of the left nasal cavity. The greater part of the middle turbinated bone has been excised to expose the structures and orifices situated beneath it. A part of the anterior portion of the inferior turbinated bone had been removed. The original borders of the turbinated bones are indicated by dotted lines. The superior turbinated bone is intact. The orifices of the left sphenoidal and frontal sinuses are indicated by arrows.

The nasal cavity with openings of accessory sinuses. The sagittal section has been made a little to the right of the nasal septum sphenoidal and frontal septum. Portions have been removed from the turbinated bones in order to exhibit the orifices of the accessory cavities. The tongue has been almost completely removed to show the tonsils.
